Promise of His Appearing An Exposition of Second Peter

The book of Second Peter has long troubled biblical scholars and interpreters, who have disputed both its authorship and its claims about the imminent return of Christ. In this study Peter Leithart offers a preterist reading of the epistle, arguing that it describes first-century events rather than the end of history. At the same time, he maintains orthodoxy, avoiding hyper-preterism and affirming both the real future return of Christ and the epistle's authenticity. Leithart's accessible style and powerful arguments make this book a valuable addition to the discussion surrounding the Bible's apocalyptic prophecies.Leithart, Peter J. is the author of 'Promise of His Appearing An Exposition of Second Peter', published 2004 under ISBN 9781591280262 and ISBN 1591280265.
